TODAY'S
PHOTO -
a photo/drawing of a Florida bird of paradise flower.
While listening to Judith Tramayne Barth's testimonial
phone call yesterday, I was reminded that many
of you are not familiar with my photo drawing art.
This is art where I've done hand drawing directly
onto my photos, a discovery that I made several
years ago. It occurred to me that a feature photo
here would be the best way to introduce this aspect
of my creativity to those of you who are unfamiliar
with it.
I selected this particular image because it's the
one to which Judith is referring when she speaks
of my art and the tiles she loves and has also purchased
for gifts. In addition it has the oranges that were
Renee's expressed preferences in our
interview phone call and some subtle purples,
the other color for which so many others of you
have expressed a particular love.
The flower itself was in a small garden outside
a convention center and had caught my eye
as I was on my way to the parking lot, coming
from an event, camera in the car.
You can see a wide variety of photo/drawings at
naturesplayground.com.
Many people go to that site to simply visit and
appreciate what's, for them, a restorative few moments.
They and others also appreciate the note
card sets that are available there, as well
as the images on other products for sale in our
CafePress
Nature Art Shop. As a matter of fact,
Cafe Press is currently running another sale through
July 27. The code for it is in the sidebar on that
site.
SELF-REFLECTING QUERIES -
My whole discovery/creation of photo/drawing was
a happy accident. See my article ACCIDENTAL
ART for a more about this.
Reflect back on your life, including current moments,
on things that you have discovered and created out
of those discoveries. It does not have to be art,
as such. It might be simply a new way of cutting
or eating a piece of fruit.
Acknowledge yourself for
those and if you don't have them written down it
might be a good idea to put them in an "Acknowledgement
Diary."
